Heh, what's funny is that I talked about this with IB, and they agreed that we should just flip the spawn day to a more realistic raid time (not 2 am) now they are the ones complaining about it =P

Yes, P1999 would be a much happier place if the whiners left and went to an actual raiding server. There they could have all the "competition" they wanted. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
How is this not a raiding server? Raids mobs are up and in the game as far as I know.

Baldrik I don't have anything against you and not trying to call you out. but i MUST MUSt say something I see people making these comments all the time on here. I find this statement to be very..idiotic. Let's look at chess for example, a game that is hundreds and hundreds of years old, yet people still play it competitively and seriously. Here we are playing EQ, a game that's 10 years old and people keep saying "y so serious this game is 10 years old zomgz". The age of what we are playing does not matter, what matters is our personalities that state whatever we are doing, we want to be the best at it. Whether it is playing chess - a game hundreds of years old, playing p99 - a game 10 years old, or wiping our asses. Some people out there are competitive and therefore want to be the best at whatever they are doing.

PLEASE PEOPLE STOP BRINGING UP THIS IS A 10 YEAR OLD GAME AND WE SHOULD BE LESS SERIOUS ABOUT IT.

Thanks.

There are other servers that are dedicated to raiding and as such have multiple raid zones open from many different expansions. They also have huge exp modifiers in order to ensure that people can quickly get to raiding level and join up with a guild or whatever to "slay da dragonz".

That's what I meant.

This server does not revolve around raiding and the majority of players are not at that point yet. This server is dedicated to giving people a chance to relive the classic 1999 experience. Everybody that comes here knows that. Sure there are raids, but raids are not the main reason this server is here.

And sorry, back in 1999 the devs did not simply unlock more raid content because some of the top level players asked for it or complained about lack of raid targets, and nor should it be done here. Therefor, the current situation should come as no surprise to anyone.

If there isn't enough raiding or "competition" or whatever for certain individual tastes, then they can easily split their time between this server for the "classic experience" and another server for the hardcore raiding and competition they desire. Nobody's stopping anyone from taking a break and coming back as new content is released.

One last thing,

I've mentioned it before and I'll say it again. If you can't handle having to share raid targets with 1 or 2 guilds now, how are you going to deal with 3-5 guilds a few months down the line? Is that going to be enough competition???

I'm pretty sure this server is going to double it's current numbers by the summer time once many are out of school or on vacation, etc...
